Description of the problem | While driving down a hill in orillia ontario canada, i had a sudden loss of brakes. I was able to swerve through 3 lanes of traffic and after nearly hitting another car in a service station parking lot i brought the vehicle to a stop. My brother checked the vehicle and found that all brake fluid had leaked out of a ruptured corroded brake line next to the abs sensor under the driver side of the vehicle. Please add my name to the list of over 110 other complaints regarding brake lines which are corroded. |
